Susan Boyle Interview On CBS’ The Early Show
As promised, Susan Boyle was on The Early Show today, and she received a rather special treat.
Susan Boyle began the rounds of American talk shows today by appearing on The Early Show on CBS. I believe this is a first for any contestant on Britain’s Got Talent, but could they have started off with anyone better? The only things that seemed to have changed on Ms. Boyle since she sang “I Dreamed A Dream” was that her clothes seemed a bit more put together, and her hair was more kept looking.
The interview was a nice one, and you could tell she is really trying to soak everything that has happened to her thus far, but who could deal with being this big of an over night sensation? We also did learn some more about her, such as she was living with her mother until she recently passed away. She had then taken a few years off from singing while she mourned, and now she is back and thought she would give the competition a try. I think it is safe to say she did more than just give it a try!
In the second half of the interview, CBS put Ms. Boyle on the phone with Patti Lupone, one of the biggest names in Broadway, to see what she thought of Ms. Boyle’s rendition of a song she had sung many years ago. Well, like almost everyone else in the world, Ms. Lupone cried. Considering she was the first person to sing this song when the show first opened, that’s quite a compliment.
She does sing “I Dreamed A Dream” again (without music to boot), but it isn’t the whole song.
We’ve posted the videos below for you, but we aren’t sure they are visible outside of the USA, sorry if they aren’t.

47-Year-Old Susan Boyle Wows The Judges On Britain’s Got Talent
Susan Boyle, a 47-year-old woman from West Lothian in Scotland, is sweeping the Internet by storm with her singing abilities!
April 11th was the premiere episode of Britain’s Got Talent, and even with only one episode aired, people are already sure that a certain Ms. Susan Boyle could stand to win the whole thing. However, that certainly wasn’t their attitude when she first walked out on to the stage.
In the behind-the-scenes footage before she took the stage, we learned that Ms. Boyle lives alone with her cat Pebbles, and that she has never even been kissed. Once she finally hit the stage, Ms. Boyle awkwardly introduced herself to the three judges, Simon Cowell, Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden, and stated that she aspired to sing like the great Elaine Page. After some eye-rolling from audience members, and even some obvious skepticism from the judges, she began to sing, and you can see the results below.
